Hit Me with your Horror
Originally shared by Andrew “Incomitatum” Chason Hit Me with your Horror I am looking for some horror flicks. The newer the better. Good is good too. I liked House of 1000 Corpses and Devil's Rejects . I liked both the new Texas Chainsaw movies. Hills Have Eyes 1 was good (never saw the second . Jeepers Creepers 1 & 2 come to mind as well. A little camp, and/or "back woods" can't hurt. Any of you have any recommendations? Lets try and not go too far back than mid 90's. Aside: How was the new "Freddy" movie? Suggested So Far • Bones (2001) • Drag Me to Hell (2009) • The Grudge (2004) • Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) • Dog Soldiers (2002) • The Decent (2005) • Creature (2011) • The Last Winter (2006)
Goddamn sleep spell. Goddamn elf rolling 14 fucking hit dice of orcs and ogres to put to sleep.
ReplyDeleteI have recently come to hate sleep as a DM for precisely that reason.
ReplyDeleteIt saved them from losing at least two characters to a "Hold Person" spell. The swingyness of old school gaming is part of the charm.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, but it riles me when all of a sudden they've plowed through something I thought might take half an hour... :)
ReplyDeleteCasey Garske in Erik Tenkar's ACKS game we ran into a major fight: ogre and 16 orcs.
ReplyDelete2d8 HD of orc later (yes, he rolled a 16), the ogre went down in about a round. He hit me for 4, I hit him for 12. At that kind of exchange, it doesn't take long :)
I dislike sleep for different reasons. It doesn't really scale well.
ReplyDeleteBernd Pressler Sleep doesn't scale at all. Extremely powerful at low levels and pretty obsolete by levels 4/5
ReplyDeleteyup. But then again, the choice is not that bad, as I have a feeling that 50% of the D&D-like adventures seem to happen on levels 1-6. XD
ReplyDeleteAn ettin just knocked in the door on floor below, so they can have this one.
